We have 4 winexpert kits under our belt now,( Island Mists)another one started (Liebfraumilch) and two other homade batches also.
My question is concerning the instructions on all the WE kits that we do....all the steps say to " sanitze all equipment, THEN RINSE".
From what I have seen on most of the forum discussions, I have NOT done this, I have cleaned with One Step, and then sanitized with K-Meta, letting BOTH of them letting drip--drain.
Is this correct? I am not leaving enough of the K-Meta behind to hinder yeast production am I?
I always wondered about this and the fact that it burns my nose so much when it comes in contact with outside air that it doesn't affect the taste of the wine?
I am pretty sure that I should apply and let drain, or drip andNOT rinse with water, but I wanted to get the opinion of the vetrans.
